    This fasTrain (quick training guide), authored by Ralph Artigliere and William Artigliere, outlines the preparation, presentation, and use of jury instructions in Florida civil and criminal jury trials.

    This third edition has been expanded to cover criminal jury instructions and guides the attorney through preparation of case-specific instructions to form a seamless fit with the standard instructions to be given in the case. It addresses the role of jury instructions in a trial, provides sources of standard and specialized instructions, and teaches how to find and apply the law in the form of jury instructions, including how to present the packet of instructions to the judge and advocate for approval of each instruction. The attorney is advised on how to properly monitor the delivery of the jury instructions to the jury and how to preserve the record on appeal. Preparation and delivery of verdict forms is also included. With this fasTrain the attorney should be able to efficiently and strategically handle both civil and criminal jury trials.
